Colorado Springs Catastrophic Injury Lawyer

Compensation for Permanently Debilitating and Life-Changing Injuries

Anyone who has been injured due to the negligence or wrongful actions of
another person has a right to demand financial compensation by filing
a claim for personal injury. This is particularly true, however, in cases
in which the accident victim has suffered life-changing, catastrophic
injuries. These types of
personal injuries result in
permanent, partial, or total disability or disfigurement, requiring ongoing
medical treatment for the duration of the victim's life.

If you have suffered a
traumatic brain injury, a crushed or severed limb, burn injuries, or a
spinal cord injury, then you may never be able to return to work, resulting in the extreme
difficulty or impossibility of supporting your family.

Similarly, a birth injury can mean that your child will never be fully
self-sufficient. To make matters worse, you may be facing enormous medical
bills for emergency treatment and hospitalization, and you might be wondering
how you can possibly afford to pay for the reconstructive surgery or rehabilitative
and ongoing care you will require to achieve the greatest possible recovery.

The costs of a catastrophic injury can be overwhelming. As an example of
this, consider the fact that the CDC estimates the annual costs of caring
for a person who has suffered a spinal cord injury at between $15,000
and $30,000, with lifetime costs ranging as high as $3 million.

These figures do not take into account the income lost due to partial or
total disability. Fortunately, you may be able to recover an insurance
settlement or jury verdict
large enough to pay for your present and future medical needs. You will stand a better chance of obtaining more financial compensation
if you are represented by a personal injury attorney in Colorado Springs
than if you deal with a personal injury claim or lawsuit on your own.

Tell Us About Your Injury

The personal interest that we take in each of our clients goes above and
beyond the general aspects that are addressed by many other law firms.
At Clawson & Clawson, LLP our personal injury lawyers focus on developing
a uniquely individualized approach for each client that we represent,
paying particular attention to the intricate details of the injury from
which you are suffering. Accordingly, we want to know all about your accident
and the harm that resulted.

Some of the most common of catastrophic injuries include:

Birth Injuries: Birth injuries are different from birth defects in that birth injuries
can be avoided while birth defects are genetic problems that could not
have been prevented. If your child was injured at birth or during the
pregnancy,
malpractice may be the cause. A catastrophic injury attorney from our firm should
be contacted immediately.

Brain Injuries: Traumatic brain injuries can be both mentally and physically debilitating
given the fact that the brain facilitates many of an individual's bodily
functions. Anything from minor confusion to full-blown memory loss can
result from an accident that resulted in brain damage. If the accident
was caused due to another person's reckless or negligent behaviors, then
a catastrophic injury lawyer should be contacted immediately.

Burn Injuries: Studies have found that approximately 20 Coloradoans die every year from
burn injuries and hundreds more are hospitalized from burn-related harms.
A third-degree burn could effectively inhibit your ability to function
as well as you were once able, making this type of injury catastrophic
in nature. An attorney should be involved in your case if you wish to
seek compensation.

The above list is not limited to the types of cases that we handle. Therefore,
we encourage you to communicate with us if you have been seriously injured
in any other way, because we are more than prepared to represent cases
of a different nature as well. Whether you are suffering from traumatic
brain injury, a spinal cord injury, or something else, the Clawson &
Clawson, LLP can be called upon for the professional legal advice and
personal assistance that you need in your pursuit of compensation for
your recovery.
